I don't have these locally so I have to order from abroad:
My question is would 7mm x 7mm dimensions of plastic core affect spacing between pins? I can't find 7.5mm x 7.5mm size to replace failed switch but I can find 7mm x 7mm and 8.5mm x 8.5mm and as long as tolerance + / – 0.5mm – 1mm will not affect spacing of pins I think I am good.
UPDATE: Here's one that I need to replace on IC board.
UPDATE: Here's the datasheet I was provided:

You CANNOT assume pin spacing from case size. You MUST refer to the manufacturer's data sheet which will show EXACTLY what is the pin spacing, pin/hole size, and connection pinout. DO NOT ASSUME anything, especially if you need compatibility or design of a PC board.
